The collection includes materials from Reiche's time in Germany at the University of Berlin and the University of Breslau and from throughout his career in the United States. The correspondence is on research topics including electromagnetism and aerodynamics. Correspondents include: Max Born, Albert Einstein, James Franck, Fritz Haber, Alexander Kolin, Rudolf Ladenberg, H. F. Ludloff, Otto Lummer, Ladislaus Natanson, Max Planck, and Erwin Schrödinger. The notes and calculations are about subjects such as nuclear physics, Einstein's equation and theoretical physics. The lecture notes and notebooks include lectures and course materials on atomic physics, electricity, hydrodynamics and elasticity, mechanics, optics, quantum theory, thermodynamics, and vector analysis. The manuscripts contain work on spectral analysis and wave theory, including final manuscripts, notes and drafts. The publications are comprised of works by Reiche and other scientists. The Hans Reiche Materials include notebooks on antennas, circuit analysis, and electricity, and an essay about his father. The collection also contains Reiche's diplomas.

A manuscript of science course notes, probably following the natural philosophy course of Robert Eden Scott of King's College Aberdeen (1769-1811), and offering insight into the teaching of physics at the height of the Industrial Revolution. The compiler was one William Watt, who was a student at the college 1806-1810, and who neatly adds his name to one of his careful illustrations, at end. It appears that William Watt may have used diagrams present in the 1805 edition of James Ferguson's "Lectures on select subjects in mechanic", and also from Olinthus Gregory's "Treatise of Mechanics" (1806) as a guide in preparing those included in this manuscript.

This notebook, dating from April to June in 1782 and believed to have been created by a student named Thomas Crafts, contains notes taken during Hollis Professor Samuel Williams' "experimental lectures" (lectures on natural philosophy, or early science). It contains notes on twenty lectures, covering the topics of "properties of a body" (extension, solidity, divisibility, mobility, figurability, and inertia); the powers of attraction, gravity and repulsion; the "Congress of bodies, and their effects"; the use of the pendulum; centripetal and centrifugal forces; the lever and the pulley; the wheel, screw and wedge; hydrostatics; hydraulics; pneumatics; fire; magnetism; electricity; optics; dioptrics; and astronomy. These notes indicate that Williams' lectures involved hands-on experiments, providing the students first-hand and immediate knowledge of some of the concepts they were studying.
